The TTC has shortened its planned subway closure on Line 1 this weekend in light of some big sporting events in the downtown core.
The TTC initially intended to close a portion of Line 1 between Bloor and Osgoode stations on Saturday and Sunday for Automatic Train Control installation.
“The work that is being done on the signal system is highly technical and so the people who are highly trained have to be booked well in advance,” Tory told CP24 on Friday afternoon. In a tweet on Friday evening, Tory said the city spoke to the transit agency and staff agreed to keep Union and St. Andrew stations open until 11 p.m. Saturday. After 11 p.m. the TTC says the closure will extend to Osgoode Station for the rest of the weekend.
The Raptors will take on the Orlando Magic at 5 p.m. at Scotiabank Arena in Game 1 of the team’s first-round playoff series.
